The 7.5.5 version of Mac OS was first published in autumn 1996. At the time, an operating system required a high power home computer, with a large turn. Today the demonstration Lee on Apple Watch not only shows that the operating system is running on something smaller than a matchbox, but also reminds us how things have changed in two decades.
Given the speed at which technology advances, soon we can finally get to the far left of the science fiction ...
